Admittedly an "okay" place to grab wings and burgers. Visited on strong recommendation of their…read morewings, arrived and I believe they were busier than normal. Entire restaurant covered by one single individual, both bar and eating areas, and she was awesome - but still ended up being a very slow process. Ordered the boneless wing special and the wings were clearly of the frozen variety and sauce "mid" at best, not fully coated. Portions were generous, but I wouldn't generally recommend this place as a standout among 2-3 similar places within a couple blocks. Meh. Biggest concern was that there was a table near us with children that weren't being controlled and they were literally screaming and irritating all the tables, but the parents or restaurant was not doing anything about it - couldn't even hear our own conversation. Not cool at all to allow that - watched people leave due to the noise levels.

Saturday was hopping at Viva La Vida with lots of birthday celebrations which included singing,…read moreshots, sparklers, and a dancing shark. Rather than wait for a table, we sat at the bar where we had excellent service. The mariposa was delicious and so much food that I had leftovers to take home. He had the tacos al pastor - he loved the pork and pineapple combo, The pina colada margarita ice cream was tasty and also filling. Highly recommend as they have some great seasonal cocktails and seems to be the spot for birthday celebrations!

First time here, and also my last time here…read more Never in my life have I had Mexican food with no taste. I got the viva sampler, and everything from the taquitos to the Mexican street corn tasted like cardboard. I took the chicken out of the taquito to see if maybe it was just the tortilla, no - it was just flavorless. The sauces it came with were the only things that were halfway decent. Then, my sister and I decided to split the flan and tres leches. Mistake numbers two and three. The flan was grainy and the tres leches has no flavor - where was the cinnamon the spices the sweetened condensed milk. Those were terrible. The mocktail was just overly sweet juice with no real thought or effort put into it. For $54 - I expect more. It's overpriced. It's flavorless. And the atmosphere was nonexistent. They're charging for nonexistent "vibes" and neon signs. Not worth it. The service was just okay. Plaza Azteca is the superior choice if given the option.

There wasn't a lot of information about this restaurant online, so I decided to go check this out…read morefor myself and get some information going here. The restaurant is on the main drag at Freeport Road, but it's a little hard to spot due to various trees being in the way. This is more of a bar than a restaurant. They have counter seats, a couple of elevated seats and a few regular seats. The place is very clean and the waitress was very nice. The restaurant does not have paper menus, just a menu written on a chalkboard on the wall. It's not a major issue, but they need to get menu's. The restaurant also does not have silverware ready at your table for you. That also needs to be fixed as while most of their foods are items you pick up with your hand, sometimes forks and knives are needed. The prices are reasonable and you can get two apps and two meals for under $50. The main draw of this place is the chicken wings. They are one of the few places in Pittsburgh with full-sized wings with both the leg and the flat part together. The wings are breaded and are good enough to eat without even putting sauce on them though they give you a box with 8 different sauces to choose from. You can get 6 of them (which is 12 wings elsewhere) or a full dozen (which is 24 wings elsewhere). 6 wings for $12 and $12 for 22. They have wing night on Wednesdays, and the price drops to 75 cents a wing which is very cheap these days. We also ordered burgers, fries and onion rings. The burgers were good. They give you a nice big piece of meat on them and the bacon was good. The fries were okay and the onion rings were very heavy on the onion part of it. The pretzel was a standard pretzel but the cheese for it had either an alcohol or possible honey flavoring to it. The restaurant also does offer happy hour where the apps are half off which makes a big difference. Finally, the restaurant has a lottery machine, darts, a slot machine and some table board games. Overall, I liked the place and would return.

The brunette mentioned she had only been there for five days, but you never would have known it. She did an excellent job checking on guests and making sure everyone was taken care of. I ordered the 3-bone rib dinner with mac and cheese. I'll admit, I'm a bit of a rib snob, but these were outstanding. They had the perfect glaze with a nice crisp on the outside, weren't overcooked, and were so tender but not falling off the bone without being overly fatty. Easily some of the best ribs I've ever had. The mac and cheese was good, but it was spicier than I could handle. It would be nice if there were a non-spicy option available. We enjoyed a few beers, great food, and sat out on the patio listening to blues music on a beautiful summer evening. It was the perfect atmosphere, and I can't wait to come back. The only downside is that parking can get a little tight when they're busy, but it's well worth the visit.

Fresh housemade pasta, elegant charm, and unbeatable service!…read more Alta Via is a hidden gem in Fox Chapel, not because you won't notice the restaurant, but because the worn down strip mall doesn't appear to have such a fine dining establishment tucked inside. Fairly unassuming from the outside... with dark tinted windows too... it is worth the adventure to unlock a wonderful date night! S/o Big Burrito Co. that runs this restaurant and many others in Pittsburgh... we visited because they send you a free entree (up to $30) as a birthday reward! The interior is stunning. Elegance achieved! With long booth seating weaving between the tables, upscale decor, and yes... window tints that make it always feel like date night inside. Our waiter was phenomenal from clearing the full table set between courses, wiping off the crumbs between settings, and just genuinely enjoying his job and making every detail matter! We enjoyed the: - Free Bread Service - a warmed focaccia with a butter/oil blend infused with fresh salt and herbs! Such a great start to a meal - Glass of Chianti Classico - probably our favorite red wine! A perfect red blend that's not too sweet/not too dry and the scent alone should be bottled as a perfume - Little Gem Romaine - upon first bite, it seemed bitter, but once you enjoy the full accompaniment of Parmesan shavings and bread crumb, it really is a perfect starter and base layer for a night of carbs - Fusilli - fresh handmade pasta with a delightful vodka sauce perfectly tossed to coat every noodle and don't worry the listed Calabrian chili is not seedy or spicy but just and aspect of the depth of the sauce. The amount of chive was overwhelming, but it was able to be picked off carefully to level it down. A half portion was the perfect size for my wife's meal. - Basil Spaghetti with Grilled Chicken and Prosciutto - even the waiter said ordering two meats was a POWER PLAY, but for anyone who hasn't had prosciutto and chicken paired with pasta... he wasn't lying! A thoughtful basil infused pasta with a very rich garlic sauce and heirloom tomatoes roasted to the point of rupture. If only the prosciutto had been crisped, I would have found my favorite new Italian pasta dish! We will definitely be back! Thankful for such a gem!
